Understanding Modifications to Child Support or Spousal Support Agreements

In Georgia, the courts look at your current income and expenses to determine if you are eligible for a modification. If you are, you must petition the court for a modification and show how your circumstances have changed since the original order was entered. The courts recognize that life is unpredictable and that financial circumstances can change. 

Some examples of changes that may qualify for a modification include:

• A decrease in income
• A significant decrease in net worth
• A significant increase in necessary expenses
• A disability
• A substantial decrease in marital standard of living
• A need for a drastic relocation

At Mitchell & Crunk Law Firm, our attorneys can play a pivotal role in modifications of child support or spousal support court orders. We can present your case effectively to the court and guide you through the complex legal process, providing a comprehensive understanding of the local court's expectations, procedures, and documentation requirements. Our legal team can also help establish the proof needed to demonstrate a substantial change in circumstances, ensuring your rights and interests are adequately protected.

Enforcing Child Support and Spousal Support Payments

If your ex-spouse is in violation of the child support or spousal support order, you may need to seek enforcement. Some examples of violations include:

• Failure to make payments
• Failure to maintain health insurance
• Failure to pay medical expenses
• Failure to comply with visitation

When your ex-spouse is in violation of child custody, child support, or spousal support orders, our seasoned attorneys can be your staunch advocate. We can assess your situation, gather all pertinent information, and map out a robust strategy to enforce these orders. 

Our attorneys can file a Motion for Contempt with the court, alleging that your ex-spouse has willfully disobeyed the court's order. This motion can compel your ex-spouse to adhere to the order and may lead to penalties, including fines or jail time, for non-compliance. Additionally, we can liaise with income withholding agencies to enforce child support orders, ensuring that your child's financial needs are met.

In cases of child custody violations, our lawyers can help modify the custody agreement, safeguarding your child's welfare and your parental rights. Through every step, our firm can provide you with invaluable support, ensuring your interests and those of your child are thoroughly championed.
